Description
The getutmp() function copies the fields of the utmpx structure pointed to by ux to the corresponding
fields of the utmp structure pointed to by u. The getutmpx() function performs the converse operation.
History
glibc 2.1.1. Solaris, NetBSD.
Library
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
Name
getutmp, getutmpx - copy utmp structure to utmpx, and vice versa
Notes
These functions exist primarily for compatibility with other systems where the utmp and utmpx structures
contain different fields, or the size of corresponding fields differs. On Linux, the two structures
contain the same fields, and the fields have the same sizes.
Return Value
These functions do not return a value.
